What a joy it was to be a part of your wedding day! I cannot wait to see the pictures. It was so much fun for us as a design team to work with a bride so open to unique combinations and vibrant colors. We loved exploring the different flower combinations during the planning process and thought the final result was stunning! I hope the ladies of your family loved their personalized corsages. Such a special touch! Please keep in touch with us.

Working with Cydney on the perfect look for my wedding was so much fun! She has the most amazing personality and is unbelievable at what she does. Flowers weren't exactly my thing, and she helped me develop a vision and executed it perfectly. She offered so many wonderful suggestions and so many options to help us achieve our look. She designed a plan around our budget and made sure that every aspect of the ceremony and reception were perfectly decorated. I would highly recommend Cydney and The English Garden and I can't wait until the next time I get another occasion to work with her!

The girls at The English Garden made me an AMAZING Red sunflower bouquet along with beautiful yellow sunflower bouquets for my bridesmaids.

GUEST




Extremely kind and helpful! Very artistic in the choices of flowers and arranging! The wedding bouquets and table flowers for the wedding were absolutely gorgeous! We would definitely use their services again!!!
GUEST




We looked at a lot of different florists before making a decision and went with the English Garden because we felt they offered the best service and value. They were really professional and very quick in their responses to my questions. They were also very creative and helped me bring together my overall look with flowers and linens. I enjoyed working with them very much. They made the process very easy and the end result was truly beautiful and exactly what my fiance and I wanted.
GUEST




The English Garden was superb! They completely exceeded all of my expectations for my wedding. I wouldn't have changed a single thing they did. They also met with me a few times along the way for consultations to be sure they captured my vision perfectly.
GUEST




If I could give Cydney and her staff at The English Garden a rating higher than 5 stars, I would. I tend to be a bit of a control freak, and the flowers for our wedding were pretty high on the priority list for me. Complicating matters was the fact that we were working with a small budget. Having seen Cydney's work at my sister's wedding, I knew I wanted her to work her magic on ours. Despite my natural tendency, the only criteria I gave her was color. I left all of the other details to her - flower types, table arrangements, etc. What she gave us was truly breathtaking. It started with the orchids for my hair in a beautiful purple that I'd never seen before, was followed by the bouquets bursting with gorgeous flowers in every shade of purple imaginable, and ended with the reception arrangements - subtle, but lovely collections of small glass vases on each table filled with a variety of purple flowers, floating candles and votives. For someone who's loved purple since she was old enough to distinguish the color, it was a dream come true.I should mention that everyone I met and dealt with at the shop was fantastic. Even if you don't deal with Cydney directly in every interaction, you're in very capable hands. I can't wait to come up with another excuse to call on The English Garden's floral genius!

Wow! Your review made me feel like a million bucks! It was such a delight to be a part of your planning process and your wedding day. You, Megan and your mom are so special to me. I feel truly honored to have been able to share in two Brewer family celebrations and look forward to future ones! Best of luck for a blessed and blissful marriage. Come see us soon.
GUEST




Cydney and her team are absolutely wonderful to work with! She helped create a beautiful vision for our wedding, and everything turned out perfect! Cydney is passionate about what she does, and it translates into her flowers. The details she focused on were just wonderful, I would recommend The English Garden to anyone!
GUEST




Cydney and her team were great to work with. She is someone who is so passionate about what she is doing, that you know your flowers are going to be perfect. I am not really a flower person, but I found pictures online that I liked and took them to her. My flowers for the wedding party as well as the venues were perfect. They were so beautiful, and actually were still alive and beautiful over a week later after we got back from our honeymoon. I would definitely recommend using them for ANY event especially a wedding!
GUEST




I had a very small wedding, so at first I had thought of not even getting a professional bouquet done, but my mom insisted. I went to one florist near my work and they basically blew me off, I suppose because I only needed a few bouquets. My mom told me to call The English Garden. She was familiar with the English Garden through her work, because her company uses them for all their corporate flowers and big events. When I called, I was expecting to probably get a low key response like I did from the first florist I tried, but instead Julie was warm and welcoming to me on the phone. She recommended that I come in for a consultation. I met with Cydney, the owner, who professionally helped me work my way through all the available options. I was not an easy bride because I had no idea what I wanted, but Cydney patiently helped me pick a beautiful combination of flowers and really helped me form a true opinion about what I liked and didn't like. We talked through a variety of ideas that comfortably fit within my budget. Cydney was so responsible with how we budgeted for my flowers and she really helped me make wise choices that got me the biggest bang for the buck. The end result was perfect. The flowers were simply amazing and I could not have been happier. From the very beginning, the English Garden treated me like their most important and valued client as if my wedding was a large scale platinum one. Regardless of your wedding size, you should check out the English Garden. They are far and away the best florist in Raleigh.
GUEST




Stupendous! Amazing! Fabulous! There are not words adequate to describe Cydney and her staff and the amazing work they did for our wedding. It was beyond our expectations but not beyond our budget. We could not have asked for more. In particular, I wanted a unique variety of rose and Cydney painstakingly worked to make sure that I had exactly what I wanted.
GUEST




The English Garden was awesome! They made my wedding bouquet as the bridesmaids bouquets, boutonnieres, and wrist corsages. We gave them a budget which they stuck with while providing outstanding service! They were very communicative and the flowers were of amazing quality. They lasted all day and night without drooping and everyone commented on how beautiful they were!
GUEST




Our flowers were more beautiful than I could have imagined. Cydney was very easy and fun to work with. I showed her pictures and talked about what I had imagined in my head. I wanted alot of colorful flowers for my wedding, nothing white. I knew it was gonna be different and I was afraid that any florist would try to mute the colors I wanted. Cydney brought my imagination to life! The flowers were so bright and beautiful, it was better that I imagined. I would highly recommend working with Cydney. I was always so excited about my wedding after our meetings (there is no stress with Cydney).
GUEST




Our flowers were breathtaking. I told Cydney just a little bit about what I wanted and she used her very creative mind to create beautiful bouquets and arrangements. I have never seen arrangements like hers which is what I wanted. I wanted people to see the floral decor and say "Wow!" and that is exactly what happened.
GUEST




Cydney was amazing to work with. If there is one thing I'll always remember about our wedding, it was our flowers. The centerpieces were just gorgeous and Cydney used our inspiration picture and created something just as beautiful, if not more gorgeous, that fit our budget. Cydney has the most fabulous creative eye and really listened to our ideas and was EXCITED about it. That's what makes her one of my favorite vendors.
GUEST




I cannot say enough about the English Garden. Cydney and her staff went above and beyond my expectations. I wanted a much more expensive look than I could afford and Cydney worked tirelessly to find creative ways to help me stay within my budget while having the wedding look of my dreams. Cydney was so generous to me with her time and her wonderful ideas. She literally works round the clock, sometimes she would send emails at 3 in the morning after working at her florist all day. At every turn the English Garden proved to be one of the smartest choices I made in selecting wedding vendors.
GUEST




The English Garden did an amazing job on our flowers. Cydney, the owner, is so creative and came up with so many ideas to make our wedding decor unique. I would highly recommend this florist.
GUEST

I was just looking at some images from your wedding this evening that James had shared with me. I cannot wait to see more. Thank you for the lovely review, but most importantly for letting me share in your beautiful wedding day! Please drop by soon to visit us at the florist. Tell your family hello for us too!
GUEST




The English Garden provided all the flowers for my April 9, 2011 wedding and they did a great job! Everything was breathe-taking and I received compliments on the flowers ALL night! I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a florist:)
GUEST




I highly recommend Cydney at the English Garden. She was very willing to work within our budget and meet as many times as we needed to adjust our flowers until they were just what we wanted. She is very creative and will sit down with you and talk through ideas to come up with the look & feel you want. I cannot express enough how beautiful the flowers were and how much they added to our wedding. Having gotten our pictures back, they look incredible. She was met with us at some point before the wedding to visit our site so that she could have a better idea of how to decorate it. She was helpful with other aspects of decorating too. We had a slight mix up with the corsages the day of the wedding and with our arbor the day before, but it was immediately fixed without problem. She even tossed together a sample bouquet of flowers that we liked so that we could visually see what we were choosing & gave it to us to take home! : )
GUEST




Cydney from The English Garden exceeded our expectations by a mile. Our flowers were absolutely GORGEOUS and Cydney gave us exactly what we asked for. I would highly recommend using The English Garden for your wedding. Cydney was very easy to work with and worked within our budget. I couldn't have asked for more!!
GUEST




The flowers for my wedding were amazing. The only criticism was with Cydney's creativeness when you are wanting a very simple design. Knowing what you want helps her to follow your vision and not hers but her ideas are great too if your looking for inspiration and help with what you want your flowers to look like. I highly recommend The English Garden.
GUEST




The English Garden flowers surpassed all expectations. Cydney and the rest of the florists were wonderful to work with. They helped to make suggestions and were extremely creative. Cydney's enthusiasm translates into her flowers. I couldn't beleive how many flowers each arrangement had, the whole venue was lush with flowers, at a way better price than many of the other top florists in the area. My guests continue to comment on how beautiful the flowers were.
GUEST




We were blown away at the ceremony decor The English Garden provided for us. We consulted with Cydney and she was very good at seeing what you want and helping you get there. Their pricing is very fair as well. They do not inflate their pricing just because its a wedding like some other florists in the area. We would very much recommend this vendor to everyone!
GUEST




Was very happy with the flowers by The English Garden. I was looking for a non-traditional look and they were great about hearing my vision and providing examples. I didn’t have to worry at all about the delivery and presentation of the flowers, they did a fabulous job with everything!




I haven't picked a florist yet but this was definitely the worst experience I have had as perparing for my wedding. They were so unfriendly and not welcoming. To even have a consultation they require a minimum of $25 be paid up front without even seeing what kind of work they can do. It took over 6 phone calls to even see if they had my date open and if they could schedule me in. It was the worst customer service ever only to find out after spending so long with them on the phone and agreeing to eventually pay the 25 dollar fee, that they were booked for my day. My suggestion for brides, don't even bother calling this place.
The English Garden has absolutely beautiful arrangements and does a phonomenal job every time they have done a wedding for us. I would highly recommend them to anyone who is in need of the perfect flowers for their special day. They have never disappointed and always provide flowers that last long after the event is over.

The English Garden is amazing! Cydney and her team are incredibly professional. As a photographer I realize the importance of having your wedding flowers look great, and used the English Garden for my own wedding. I was blown away by what they delivered and everyone commented on how beautiful the flowers were! Cydney was very responsive and professional and helped me keep everything within budget. I can't say enough!
The English Garden are a great company to work with for the floral arrangements for your wedding and other events. Their vision is really creative and the owner (Cydney) is such good fun. They have personally provided me with flowers on many occasions and always do an excellent job.
Cydney English and the rest of the English Garden staff are truly amazing. It is clear that Cydney has a passion for what she does and she personalizes every bride's experience... the range of flowers (from small, intimate weddings to large grand-scale events) that they can do at the English Garden is amazing! Cydney knows her flowers, has a great eye for design and can do amazing things with any color-palette. Every client we've ever referred to the English Garden has not only been incredibly happy with the flowers for their event, but they've remarked how the English Garden when above and beyond their expectations!
Amazing in so many ways. Talent, vision, perfection, beauty and always puts their clients first. Every single one of my brides RAVE about Cydney and Warren and I always look forward to photographing their beautiful works of art! Customer service and final product is above and beyond.
I must say without a doubt the most talented florist I know. She is creative and fun on any budget and makes my job so much easier with every detail being BEAUTIFUL.
